For nearly as long as I've been doing Mudcat, I've been reading people talking about Rick Fielding and reading his thoughts on mudcat.

The overwhelming impression is that of a man held in very high regard by his friends and contemporaries. Also a very very dedicated and professional artist, who had thought long and hard about folk music.

I checked Rick out on the net, and i couldn't find an entry on Wikipedia about him. I can't help thinking - perhaps this is something that perhaps his close friends could do for him. People who knew the gigs, the people, the times ....and above all Rick.

I'm sorry if this seems inappropriate for me to say. Its just an idea that's occurred to me - such a well loved man deserves a mention there.
